Re: Getting the angle vectors ?
Here's a quick hack that will display the axis at the bottom of the main AC3D window (in the message area).
-no warranty- With a text editor, edit tcl/ac3d.tcl and find: Code:
proc set_custom_axis { var } { Code:
set cent [ac3d get_selection_centre] Code:
display_message "axis: $axis" Code:
puts "axis: $axis" I'm not sure if this would be useful to others - why do you want this info? |
